Even if it was with a discount, at R$40 million (about 16 million euros when the deal was signed) it was the most expensive hiring in Brazilian football ever.

Maybe for italians thats small pocket exchange, but considering the number of players Brazil produces, thats JUST TOO MUCH money for what Pato is producing. You can get much more productive players in Brazil for much less.

Lucas can rack up goals but not assists. He is very explosive; however, he has not vision. (Similar to SeS)

I remember when United was linked with Lucas and he was very rated and Tim Vickery described him as the brazilian theo walcott. He got slated for comparing Lucas to walcott. It turns out he was kind to Lucas and Walcott is better than him
